How to Make Valentine’s Day Marshmallow Pops

  1. Assemble the Marshmallows: For each lollipop stick or straw, push 3 marshmallows onto it, leaving a bit of space between each marshmallow for easier dipping and decorating.
  2. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 20-second increments, stirring in between until smooth. Avoid overheating.
  3. Dip the Marshmallow Pops: Hold each stick and dip all three marshmallows into the hot melted chocolate (be careful!), gently tapping the stick on the edge of the bowl to remove excess chocolate.
